Can't Change Paragraph Text

  • I created a dummy post our website to mess around with Google Easy Fonts and put seven lines of text using headings 1-6 and “paragraph.” I had no issues changing the “heading” lines of text but I am unable to change the “paragraph” text …. On a page, the “paragraphs” part of the Google Fonts customizer will let me use “text decoration” … but on a post, it only makes changes to the tags (font and text decoration), but not the actual post content…

    Also, we use excerpts on our website homepage as well as on each department homepage… on the website’s homepage I was only able to change each post titles (which is not a big issue) but was unable to change anything for the post excerpts on the department pages… can those be altered?

    Hi Jeanna,
    You can change any aspect of your theme using our plugin, it’s likely that the styles in your theme are overriding the styles outputted from our plugin (and in this case all that you would need to do is create a custom font control). Can you please post a link to the website you are referring to so that I can help you further. Cheers

    I thought that might be it, after reading other posts but am unsure how to create the proper coding or where to put it. Here is the link https://www.totalsportscomplex.com/

    Thank you!

    Easy Google Fonts looks good, but instruction on the most basic notion appears to be lacking – how does one control/change the basic ‘body font’ on a WordPress page? What’s the correct CSS Selector for body font WordPress? ‘Body’? The included Block Quote example would seem to have utility to 20% of your audience, while everyone would probably be interested in the latter.

    Hi boyouborne,
    Unfortunately there is no one correct answer to your question. The reason for this is because it depends on the theme that you are using and this varies from each theme. Generally speaking this plugin is ideal for people that have some knowledge of CSS selectors.

    In answer to your question though, there is a CSS selector called body that is used to control the complete body font, but it is very likely that your theme developer would have used more specific selectors to override this.

    The video provided shows a complete example of adding a custom font control the only thing that is required on the users part is knowledge of the CSS selector they wish to control. If you have a site specific question just start a new thread on the support forum with a link to the site in question and I’ll do my best to help. Cheers
